Mt. Qingbian

Dong Qichang radically transforms the landscape composition into a purely abstract design. He organizes the mountain forms to achieve an overall sense of structure, activating the flow of energy ( qi ) and the momentum of force ( shi ) throughout the pictorial design. In his art, brush and ink assume life independent of the depicted forms, so that the painting can be appreciated for “the sheer marvels of brush and ink.” Fisa demonstrativa, nu obiect aflat in patrimoniul acestui muzeu.
